    I believe this has to do with data integrity. All properties to be set by
    another entity should be done via a verb instead of directly. I'd take a
    look at the listing for @set on the JH core and I'll bet you find that,
    under some circumstances at least, it forces you to use :set_foo. then go
    ahead and do the eval instead.
